Chapter 75 Deliberately Opposing Me?



Chapter 75 Deliberately Opposing Me?

Bryan coaxed Anna to get her to have some soup.

"Anna, try this. It's a nutritious chicken soup that I spent two hours cooking especially for you. There's a lot of ingredients inside that are good for your eyes. It's perfect for your current situation."

"Anna, I personally made this for you. Please have more of it."

Anna quietly faced Bryan without speaking, neither did she open her mouth.

Liam stormed in abruptly, causing Bryan to jump fright.

He quickly put down the spoon and stood up. "Uncle, why are you here?"

When Anna heard that Liam had come, she suddenly gripped the blanket under her hand tightly.

Why had he returned!? He was truly like a haunting spirit that she could not shake off!

Liam coolly looked at Anna who sat in bed. When he could clearly see that she was ill-at-ease, some of the rage inside him dissipated.

After that, Liam turned towards Bryan. "Bryan, step out with me for a moment. I have something to ask you."

Liam did not know what it was about but he grew anxious when he saw how stern Liam looked. Hence, h e rushed to follow Liam out of the hospital room.

As Bryan walked out, he asked, "Uncle, if you had something to ask me, you could have given me a call. Why should you trouble yourself by coming here personally?"

A trace of disdain flashed across Liam's eyes. He slowly began to speak, "How is your grandmother doing? Why aren’t you at home looking after her?"

Bryan could sense the displeasure in Liam's voice. He felt a little perplexed. "Grandmother has people specifically tasked with looking after her. I... I'm a man, to look after her..."

Before he finished speaking, he was cut off forcibly by Liam.

"As her dear grandson, do you find it laborious to stay by her side and fulfill your filial duties!?"

Bryan quickly hung his head. His tone was full of discontent, "You're right! When I'm home, I'd always spend time with my grandmother. However, Anna is now in the hospital! I'm really worried about her so..."

"Is your grandmother more important or are women more important?"

Bryan trembled violently. "Of course my grandmother i s more important! However, grandma instructed me to come to the hospital more often to spend time with

Anna..." "That's an excuse!!!" growled Liam deeply. His features were tense.

Bryan was so frightened that he felt a chill go down his back. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said respectfully, "Uncle, you're right! Grandma is advanced in age. I should spend more time by her side. I’ll head back right now!"

Bryan wiped the beads of sweat off his forehead. He did not understand how he had managed to offend Liam by coming to see his fiancee!

However, Grandmother Dawson was the one who wielded all the power in the Dawson family. Spending more time by grandma's side and making her happy would be able to help him secure his position in the Dawson family.

Bryan was also worried that Amelia would take the opportunity to feed his grandmother lies to turn her against him while he was at the hospital.

Bryan was about to leave when he heard a crisp shattering sound coming from the hospital room, followed by Anna's surprised gasp.

Bryan quickly ran back in. "Anna, what happened?"

Liam also felt his chest tense up and quickly ran inside as well.

It appeared that Anna had tried to get out of bed and accidentally knocked over the bowl of hot soup,

causing it to shatter to pieces on the ground.

Anna was a little panicked. "Did I break something?"

"It's okay. Are you hurt?" Bryan anxiously spun around Anna.

Liam’s expression darkened. His gaze became even more frightening. He barked furiously, "So troublesome!"

After that, Liam glared at Bryan's hands that did not stop touching Anna and spat out through gritted teeth. "How dirty!"

Anna tilted her head, staring in the direction of the door. She pretended to be confused, "Who's speaking? I f you think that it’s dirty, please could you step outside?”

Liam felt a growing sense of frustration. That d*mn woman. Did she think that he was in the way?

Bryan could see that a storm was brewing on Liam's face and rushed to say, "Anna, it's my uncle. Please don't speak in that manner. It's disrespectful."

Bryan then quickly smiled placatingly at Liam. "Uncle, please don't take offense. Anna didn’t mean it. She can’t see so she didn't know that it was you.”

"Does she not know?" Liam's voice was deep and as cold as a winter storm.

He was outraged now. He was just about to send Bryan packing when Anna suddenly made a scene, foiling his plan to chase Bryan away with a seemingly righteous reason.

This blasted woman. Was she going out of her way to oppose him?

Anna responded, "Oh! It's uncle! I really can't see. Doesn't uncle know that? Or is he just forgetful because he's an elder?”

Anna was deliberately provoking Liam. After all, she was not the one who invited Bryan over. What right did Liam have to be angry with her now!? For him to call the situation dirty, did he mean to say that she was dirty?

"Anna, don't speak like that to my uncle. Hurry up and apologize to him." Bryan was worried about offending Liam and quickly tugged at Anna's hand, dragging her to apologize to Liam.

Anna snatched back her hand and fumbled as she took a step back to avoid Bryan.

Bryan felt a little embarrassed. He hurried to smile and explain, "Uncle, please don't be mad! Anna isn't feeling well so she’s become more short-tempered. That's the reason why she's a little disrespectful when she speaks..."

Liam wore a stern expression and clenched his jaw tightly as he glared at Anna. However, he directed his words at Bryan, "You should head back to look after your grandmother!"

Bryan felt even more awkward. Why did Liam always want to send him packing?

Bryan looked at Anna uncomfortably, "Uncle... Anna is all alone here. I’m too worried to leave her behind."

"Are you a nurse?" asked Liam coldly.

Bryan shook his head.

"Are you a doctor?"

Bryan shook his head once again.

"In that case, what's the point of you staying here!?" Liam sounded self-righteous and domineering.

"..." Bryan was stunned.

It was clear that Liam was being unreasonable. However, Bryan was unable to retaliate.

Bryan stared at Liam’s furious expression and felt terrified. He suddenly recalled his grandmother's birthday party. Someone had privately told him some laughable rumors. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

They said that Liam had developed a dislike for Anna since the day of the birthday party. He would always speak to her coldly and treated her with particular hostility because he had fallen for his nephew Bryan.

Liam was gay. Everyone had heard the rumors. It was also true that there were no women by Liam’s side. There was also never any news of him having any affairs with any women.

Bryan had noble features and was refined as well as handsome. It was understandable if Liam was attracted to him.

Bryan suddenly felt a chill go down his back. He quickly said, "Anna, I’m really worried about grandma. I'm going to head back now! I'll come to see you tomorrow. Remember to have your meals and get some rest. If there's anything, give me a call."

When he finished speaking, Bryan looked at Liam and ran off as though he were trying to escape.

Anna scoffed internally. Of course, his family affairs would hold the most important place in Bryan's heart.

Thankfully, she had realized this in time.

After Bryan had left, Liam and Anna were the only ones left in the hospital room.

Anna did not know what expression Liam was wearing right now. However, based on the coldness of the air around her, it was enough for her to deduce that Liam probably looked pretty angry right now. i

"Now that you've chased Bryan away in such a bold and outright manner, aren't you worried that he might be suspicious of your intentions?" asked Anna.

"I'm not scared. What are you scared of?"

Liam suddenly drew close. Anna wanted to escape but his long arm caught hold of her slender waist and pulled her body into his embrace, trapping her in his arms.
